It would be a big help to us 'backward' Americans if Maxwell Studio had an option to use Standard units rather than metric.

I agree. I am as backwards as they get. This is a dangerous question to ask around here. I have asked and it did not go over ell for me.

Agreed.
I don't know what's involved with an addition like this, but it sure would make life in Maxwell Studio a little more pleasant, not to mention more efficient. I used Newtek's Lightwave for many years and it has units options in the general preferences menu. AutoCad is the same. Just seems logical to have such an option.
